A couple of nice examples of how research in intersubjectivity and social cognition can be embodied artistically.

The first is the 2011 Dance your PhD wining entry: A study of social interactivity using pigeon courtship, by Emma Ware from the BioMotionLab at Queen’s University, Canada. Here’s a link to Emma’s thesis.

The other example is by neuroscientist Guillaume Dumas from the Cognitive Neuroscience and Brain Imaging Laboratory, Hôpital de la Salpêtrière; Paris, France. A short film (in French) about social understanding, interaction and synchronization of brain activity. The short won the jury’s price of the event “Les chercheurs font leur cinéma” 2011. Here you can find some more information about the work it’s based on.
